On the first game back from the All-Star Break The San Diego Padres lose a close one as Jake Peavygets toss around as he gave up back-to-back jacks the 4th inning by R.Ankiel and T.Glaus had two the day,

one more too J.Mather in the 7th inning. All-n-All he still didn’t do to bad with a line of 7 IP on 8 hits 4 runs all earned by HR 7 strikeouts and 0 BB. Mike Adamspitched a scoreless 8th inning only giving up one hit and got one strikeout.

Offensively they didn’t could not get it done scoring 3 runs on 9 hits with 6 left on base. The Highlights of the offence were as followed. Edger Gonzales had 2 runs 2 hit 1 RBI and 2 strikeouts,

brother Adrian Gonzales had 2 hit 1 BB 1strikeout, while Kevin Kouzmanoff had 1 run 2 hits 1 RBI 1BB 1 strikeout, Chase Headley had 1 hit 1 RBI, And don’t forget about Jake Peavywith 2 hits. They really do need to found away to get more run support for pitchers or no one will want to take the mound for us.

On another note Tony Clark was traded too The Arizona Diamondbacks for Minor League RHP Evan ScribnerI kind of thought they went in wrong direction on this one, there were a lot better talent in their farm league like C Sean Coughlin with 10 HR 58 RBI 38/39 BB/SO ratio OBP .367/SLG.489/AVG.262/OPS.856 or there’s

RF Derrick Walkerhitting a line of 7 HR 40 RBI 37/83 BB/SO ratio with 6 SB and OBP.366/SLG.414/AVG.249/OPS.780 either one of those would have been worth it,both play with The South Bend Silver Hawks(A). By the way I can’t seem to find stats on E.Scribner, maybe it was a phantom trade just to get ride of Tony C. well if they were going to do that could they at least phantom trade him to the AL, not within our division!
